I'm starting a new series on WotB. In it, I'm going share with you something I love to to do on my own - compare song covers with their originals! (yaaaayyy, applause). It's sometimes surprising how much room for interpretation a melody and some lyrics leave - and how a different interpretation can feel like a completely new (and better?) song altogether.
First up, "Islands in the Stream".
Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers
Constantines and Feist
(there's a Bee Gees one in there too... but I don't think it's that special).
The Amazing Engineering Behind Mount Rushmore
-
The colossal sculpture of four presidents on the side of Mount Rushmore in
South Dakota is actually titled *Shrine of Democracy*. Sculptor Gutzon
Borglum...
